Merchant Navy Memorial Bristol

My images from its unveiling by HRH Princess Anne in 2001 until the present day.

The video starts with images of Welsh Back 1931 and c1900 the site of the present memorial.

The music is Eternal Father the seafarers hymn.

A remarkable achievement by the Bristol Merchant Navy Association in raising this memorial withthe support of the Bristol and surrounding public without which it would not have been possible.

This great maritime city now has a memorial to all those seafarers who made herwhat she is today and who are still playing a vital role in the life of our nation.

Towards the end of the video can be seen the stained glass tribute I had the pleasureto design which is in St Stephens Church City.

The complete memorial was designed by David Backhouse and the stone came fromthe Tarn region of France part of the Languedoc-Roussillon-Midi-Pyrénées .
